error with filter.seqs or chimera.uchime???

Hi… i am trying to analysis my 18sRNA sequencing data. However, Mothur is quitting at chimera.uchime step. I am not getting sure where i am doing wrong. Some time filter.seqs showing “filtered alignment: 0”. However, I tried with change parameters such as trump=., or trump=T, vertical=T and now “getting filtered alignment: some numbers” but still further not able to run chimera.uchime step. Please have a look into below process and suggest. Thanks…

What happens when you run screen.seqs(fasta=stability.trim.contigs.good.unique.good.align)?

Hi, Here is output of screen.seqs(fasta=stability.trim.contigs.good.unique.align)? However, i am not getting to run chimera.uchime. Usually it shows
“…short sequences (–minlen 10, shortest 0) discarded from stability.trim.contigs.good.unique.filter.precluster.temp”.

Thanks

Sorry, I meant to ask what the output of summary.seqs was after running screen.seqs
